Cruise the Med with Scarlet Nights & Instant Best Friends
Virgin Voyages and Two Bad Tourists are sailing soulmates at this point, having worked together for the last three years to bring our guests the best cruising experiences on the high seas. And we’re at it again from October 4-11, 2026, with our 7 Days in Greece, Italy & Spain cruise. Join our gay group aboard the Scarlet Lady for a week of fine dining, exciting excursions, and sassy themed parties (including a PJ party, an ’80s night, and the infamous Scarlet Night). Between onboard fun, we’ll port at the gay-favorite island of Mykonos, seductive Sicily, the stunning Amalfi Coast, and even Civitavecchia—better known as the gateway to Rome—before arriving in beautiful Barcelona.
Our trips are for everyone, whatever your background, age, relationship status, or shoe size! So don’t feel intimidated if you’re traveling alone, because our group activities, dinners, and excursions will help you forge friendships with your fellow shipmates that last way after you disembark.
SPECIAL OFFERS!
For solo travelers: join for just $2,240 for a private cabin. Only 3 cabins are available at this rate.
For couples & friends: book a Sea Terrace cabin and save $200, plus get $200 in free onboard credit. Only 1 cabin available, first-come, first-served.
Book by June 10, when the special offers expire. Plus, we’ll only be running one Virgin Voyages gay group cruise next year. So if you can’t make our May 2027 trip, this is your last chance before 2028.
